William Sulzer declared tonight that his election as chief executive made! him the Democratic leader of New j Cfoto **t f >n\- rvpmrvrat in the! omiv. II un.,. State challenges that leadership,he ! gi'"d, "let him come out in. the open and ; the people will decide." The governor's statement was made in response to inquiries as to whether Charles F. Murphy, leader of Tammany Hall, had indorsed John X. Carlisle, of Watertown, and John H. Delaney, of Brooklyn two of three members of a commission selected by j Governor Sulzer *to investigate State' departments and bureaus. ' 1 .1 111 VCUlVVlHliV ''I am the Democratic leader of the j State; the people decreed it at the ; polls, and I stand on their verdict," ] said the governor einijbatically. "I : can't succeed in doing what I want toj do as governor unless I am the Demo- j cratic leader. If any Democrat in the State challenges that leadership let! him come out in the open and the peo pie will decide." I The governor made it clear that he would receive anyone who desired to see him at any time, including Colonel Roosevelt, as the head of the progressive movement; William Barnes, Jr., as chairman of rh^ Republican State' committee; Charles F. Murphy, as leader of the New York county Deniocratic organization; J. Pierpont Morgan or Thomas F. Ryan. "But," lie added "they must see me in the open, the same as any other person."! The governor said he realized that I Mr. Murphy, as the leader of an im-J portant political organization in New j York, deserved recognition as such, I and that he would receive requests from him, reserving the right, however, to deny them if they were not proper. CONGRESSMAN LEAPS TO DEATH. W. IV. Wedemeyer, of Anu Arl??r, .tumps From atoi?) an<l Perishes in the Sea. Washington, Jail. 3.?Representative W. W. Wedemeyer, of Ann Arber, Mich., who suddenly went insane at Colon. Panama, at. the time of President Taft's recent visit to the isthmus, j jumped overboard last night from a i ship on which he had been taken at | Colon. His body had not been re-1 covered last night. Representative Wedemeyer went to ! the Isthmus of Panama with a con-I gressional party at the same time the j president visited there. On the voy-1 age from Xew York he collapsed and j was taken first to a sanitarium in j Panama and later was put in confinement in a hospital where he be?w,^ vmiant and raved about his de U<xmc ? iviviiv - ? __ _ feat at the last election. He developed a suicidal tendency and was closely watched. Wedemeyer's close friends say that a few days before leaving for thei isthmus he fell and struck his head! on an icy sidewalk. It was not regarded as serious and did not deter "him from going with the congressional | party. ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION. I Lexiugton Farmer Shot From Ambush | ?n;,.L- Hnrlev Charged With Ik (rime.

For Four Hours, Hrii * senator * i?i A-- it .1.1. .\uuiu (u unir^ iiuiu> iiumuru I |. Attention of Audience. Washington, Jan. 2.?Senator Joseph \\ . Bailey. of Texas, long one of j the picturesque figures and striking j speakers of the United States Senate, j delivered to-day, before crowded floors and galleries, his final speech as a memlxrr of that body. Within a day or two his resignation will bp laid before ! the senate and communicated to Gov-1 ernor Colquitt, or" Texas, his expectation being that !\. M. Johnston, of Houston, will be named to fill out his term, which would end March 4. Senator Bailey's speech was an attack upon the principles of the initiative and referendum as institutions which would, if adopted, bring about the overthrow of the present system of American Government. He declared j they originaated in the desire of poli- i ticians to escaoc the responsibility fori action on such petty questions as to j the location of State capitals and the settlement of prohibition lights. As institutions of government, lie declared the schemes for direct legislation by the people would convert the United, States from a Republic into a democ- j racy, and would give its control into the hands of "the unskilled, the idle and the vicious." Quotes South Carolinians. Washington, Jan J.?South Caro-i lina's great men of the past figured! conspicuously among authorities u.uot-1 ed by Senator Bailey, or Tex., toaay m his brilliant farewell attack upon the initiation and referendum and all othpr principles inconsistent wiM the Aiuer:-' can system of representative governin cm. The Senator dcvi \-l thai Charles Pincknev, of South Carolina, had as much to do with the shaping of our J institutions as any other of the states-j ' 1._i?~ 'litre nnt- pv- I men ot tne i\.evoiuiiuu<u \ ua^a. ??"?. cepting even Madison or Hamilton, and that Pinckney's draft became the basis of our constitution. Another famous South Carolinian, Francis Lieb^r. was praised to the skies j for liis work as a political philosopher and Zachariah Johnson, also of. the Palmetto State, was characterized in glowing terms as one of the greatest debators in the constitutional convention ^nd as a man whose memor-' ought to be resurrected from the oblivion which ceems to have overtaken it. The Bailey argument will doubtless go down in history as the most stiking speech of the 62d congress. It ? c held the attention of more people Tor a longer time than any other oratorical j effort that has been made in the Capitol for years. Most of the audience expected it to close with the predicted resignation, but they were disappointed. However, it is probable 'that the resignation will be tilled within a few j davs. oossibly to-morrow. Col. R. M. Johnston, editor of the Houston Post, reached Washington today and upon the result of a confer-j ence between him and the senator the i details of the resignation will depend. It is unlikely that the Texas Legislature will confirm the appointment of Col. Johnston to succeed Senator P?ailey, j but the legislature cannot act before the 22nd of this month and Johnston can have the senatorship until then if he will take it. and it is believed he ( will. WRECK NEAR EHRHARDT. i ! A. C. L. Passensrer Crashes Into Coach | of H. and B. at Junction Ehrhardt, Jan. 3.?A wreck that j came near being a very serious affair occurred yesterday morning at the H. j and B. junction a few miles east of | here, when the regular passenger train on the Green Pond and Ehrhardt branch of the Atlantic Coast Line railroad ran into the passenger coach of the Hampton and Branchvilie train ?+ ti-i-it Hvha wa? crossing, UlcU just rti U?.v ? the vack of the Atlantic Coast Line. The tracks were knocked from under the coach, its walls and flooring were smashed, and possiblv the only i thing that prevented a more serious disaster was the automatic uncoupling, of the coach struck from the forward; section of the train. Several pass en -; gers were on board and it was not at 5 first known how serious were their ill? juries. Dr. John L Copehmd. of this' town, was called by wire to the scene of the wreck.
